If We Had 5 More Minutes

Daisuke Hagaromo is a 19-year-old who is completely bored out of life. His bad decisions had gotten him to the worst place he could have imagined when he was younger, and every day of his life felt miserable. He intends to commit suicide in a quick and painless manner, jumping off the roof of the 100-story building with his eyes closed and succumbing to his miserable fate. He dies successfully, but awakens to find himself floating in a void, greeted by a divinely inspired digital system. In exchange for his eternal submission to the system's conditions, the system offers him a chance at a new and more fulfilling life. Daisuke, against his better judgment, accepts the offer and is transported to another dimension of reality. He would be assigned difficult missions and put through impossible trials there, which would later be revealed to be a path to greater life and immortality. ******* This is a system novel set in medieval times with mythical characters and situations. It is NOT a harem, and there are very few sexually explicit scenes. My world building and character development aren't the best, but they will improve with time. I hope you enjoy it, and if you do, please consider supporting, reviewing, commenting, and following. Have a good time!

A thousand years ago, the world was consumed by an apocalyptic catastrophe. A thousand feet tall Sword came from above and setttled on earth. The earth itself twisted under the weight of its power, and from the fallout emerged monstrous creatures born from radiation and chaos it brought. In the centuries that followed, humanity clawed its way back from the brink of extinction. Massive fortress cities now stand as bastions of survival, shielding the remnants of mankind from the horrors that lurk beyond their walls. Over time, a new power system emerged — one that allowed humans to awaken unique abilities at the age of sixteen. Some gained bloodline powers, inheriting ancient strengths. Others awakened elemental affinities, commanding fire, water, or lightning as extensions of their will. But when Aren Hunter faced his awakening ceremony, he awakened… nothing. No bloodline. No element. Instead, something entirely different stirred within him — a mysterious interface that called itself the Creation System. “You can create any technique you desire — as long as you have the points to pay for it.” It also granted him the ability to cultivate any technique placed within its slots. Now, armed with this strange and limitless power, Aren must forge his own path. Will he rise to protect his family and defend humanity against the darkness — or fade away as another forgotten name lost to time? --- System Interface: [Host: Aren Hunter] [Tier: Non-Awakened] [Slot 1: Inactive (0/100)] [Slot 2: Locked] [Slot 3: Locked] [Slot 4: Locked] [Slot 5: Locked] [Points: 0]
